As a child, Geena dreamed of being an actress. While in high
school, she felt left out and had low self esteem because at 6
feet, she was the tallest girl in school. After high school, Geena
entered New England College in New Hampshire and then transferred
the next year to Boston University where she majored in drama. In
1979, she graduated and moved to New York to start her career. Her
career consisted of sales clerk and waitress. She worked at Ann
Taylor, where she eventually rose to Saturday window mannequin
while trying to get a job with a modeling agency. Eventually signed
by the Zoli Agency at the advanced age of 23, she wound up as a

(1988)_ (qv). For the last film, she was the surprise winner of the
Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. More fun movies followed with
the flying saucer in the pool _Earth Girls Are Easy (1989)_ (qv)
